Tips for Air Frying Frozen Sweet Potato Fries
- Make sure they’re completely frozen for best results. If you let them thaw and get too soft, they will break and become mushy.
- Lay the frozen sweet potato fries in a single layer. Don’t pile them on too high because they won’t cook evenly. It’s better to cook in smaller batches. 2 layers deep is the max you’ll want to cook them for best results.
- Sprinkle some seasonings on afterwards: garlic salt, garlic power, onion salt, onion powder, everything but bagel seasoning. Even some shredded cheese is fantastic.
- Add your favorite dip options. There’s so many awesome possibilities.
- Serve with your favorite sandwich or burger. These are also awesome as a snack.
- All recipe details for time and temp are in the recipe box below. Hope you enjoy these for your next snack!
- Pro-Tip: here’s our favorite tools to help make air frying easier:
We LOVE Evo Oil Sprayers. Not the prettiest, but they’re functional and spritz oil great! They don’t clog up like many others we’ve bought. There’s different styles, but all seem to have the same great spray head. Works great for grilling!
There are Square Mats & Round Mats. These perforated non-stick silicone mats are used to cook food in your air fryer or steamer to minimize sticking. Holes allow hot circulating air to cook the food & keeps the food from sticking.
Parchment sheets are great for your air fryer or bamboo steamer (food tends to stick most on wire basket or tray). Choose from different sizes, shapes, white and brown (unbleached). Holes allow air to cook food evenly.
